The silverware factory Bruckmann & Söhne was founded in Heilbronn in 1805 by Georg Peter Bruckmann and continued by his sons and grandsons; in 1898 it moved into a new works in Lerchenstraße, which was regarded as the largest silverware manufactory in Germany. The firm produced hollowware and cutlery and marked its silver with an eagle with spread wings; in 1968 the business was sold and in 1973 it closed. The Federal Shooting Festival, in French Tir fédéral, has been held since 1824, when the Swiss Shooting Association was founded in Aarau, and today takes place every five years. In 1898 Neuchâtel on Lake Neuchâtel was the venue; besides shooting thalers and commemorative medals, silver cups and goblets were among the shooting prizes awarded to successful marksmen and sections. Heraldically, the Neuchâtel coat of arms is a black eagle on gold with a gold inescutcheon bearing a red pale with three silver chevrons. In Swiss shooting sport, a Stich is a competition programme of usually five to fifteen shots.
